BNSF M-EVELVW, the Everett to Longview manifest, heads south along the Puget Sound coastline at Chambers Bays Beach. While it may only be a low priority manifest, the SD75M duo sandwiching a triclops SD60M is a prime example of why this train & its northbound counterpart are some of the higher sought out trains in the area since it often gets this kind of power. 6-23-23

This tiny brass bell measures 2cm at it's widest point. It's a souvenir of Lucerne, Switzerland, from 1981. The whole image is under 7cm wide.
HMM and Happy New Year!

Qui non c'è silenzio, ma pace sì. Il vento increspa l'acqua nera verso di me. Non c'è nessuno in giro. Non si vedono uccelli. Il traffico taglia a metà Hyde Park. Mi arriva alle orecchie come rumore bianco. Passo una mano sulla panchina ma non mi siedo. Come ieri, Come l'altro ieri, resto in piedi finchè non ho più pensieri. Guardo l'acqua della Serpentine". (Vikram Seth, "Una musica costante")
The 40 kilometers of passage to traverse Doubtful Sound reveals amazing sights and weather. Just unbelievable seeing this in the middle of the Antipodean summer. No man-made objects of any kind exist here - no houses, no power lines, no navigation signs....

"Sounds of Nature" mixed with the sounds of a nearby road unfortunately ...
on the end of this video you can see the symbol of our civilization ~ plastic bottle on the shore of the river ...
This little beauty made a brief appearance as it sung it's beautiful song.

Bailey's Fountain at Grand Army Plaza. The 1932 fountain was funded by philanthropist Frank Bailey as a memorial to his wife.The crowning sculpture of the figures are that of Wisdom and Felicity holding on to the prow of a ship.The bottom statue is that of Triton or Triden (without the second"t"), the son of Neptune/Poseidon.Although Triton uses a trident the sculptor opted to show him blowing on a twisted sea conch,one of the god's other attributes.When he blows on it like a trumpet he does so to either stir or calm the waves of the sea.You can't see it to well in this shot,but there's also a little boy off to the right carrying a cornucopia.
zogen die beiden 225er von BBL ihren langen und schweren Schotterzug gestern bei brütender Hitze in Bremen-Mahndorf gen Süden.
Der Lokführer hatte zur Belüftung allerdings die falsche Tür geöffnet;-)
Lying in an inaccessible gravel pit are three well preserved examples of obsolete technology from the 1920s. They are acoustic mirrors designed to pick up the sound of approaching aircraft before they were visible. They were never taken into use because of the development of radar prior to World War 2. here are the 20 foot and 30 foot sound mirrors.
On an overcast afternoon of Friday the 28th of June 2002 the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland's Ivatt designed WT Class #4 storms away from Whitehead, in County Antrim; heading for Belfast with an empty stock working that will later form an evening "Jazz & Stream" excursion to a mystery destination.
Sounds Irish!

sounds of silence
Simon & Garfunkel
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls"
And whispered in the sounds of silence

Doubtful Sound, New Zealand, by moonlight. The ship had shut down its diesel engines for the night and the wind had ceased. The only sounds were of dolphins slapping the water and calling to each other with that high pitched haunting resonance they make. It was magical.
